Wigner's representation of quantum mechanics in integral form and its applications

Dimitris Kakofengitis, Maxime Oliva, Ole Steuernagel

We consider quantum phase-space dynamics using Wigner's representation of quantum mechanics. We stress the usefulness of the integral form for the description of Wigner's phase-spa…

Anharmonic quantum mechanical systems do not feature phase space trajectories

Maxime Oliva, Dimitris Kakofengitis, Ole Steuernagel

Phase space dynamics in classical mechanics is described by transport along trajectories. Anharmonic quantum mechanical systems do not allow for a trajectory-based description of t…

Wigner`s quantum phase-space current in weakly-anharmonic weakly-excited two-state systems

Dimitris Kakofengitis, Ole Steuernagel

There are no phase-space trajectories for anharmonic quantum systems, but Wigner's phase-space representation of quantum mechanics features Wigner current~. This current rev…

The Quantum Liouville Equation is non-Liouvillian

Dimitris Kakofengitis, Ole Steuernagel

The Hamiltonian flow of a classical, time-independent, conservative system is incompressible, it is Liouvillian. The analog of Hamilton's equations of motion for a quantum-mechanic…

Wigner flow reveals topological order in quantum phase space dynamics

Ole Steuernagel, Dimitris Kakofengitis, Georg Ritter

The behaviour of classical mechanical systems is characterised by their phase portraits, the collections of their trajectories. Heisenberg's uncertainty principle precludes the exi…
